A quick summary of books on the KJ method
party science The Law of Developing Human Creativity (Shakai Shiso Sha, Gendai Soyo Bunko, 1964) way of thinking For Creativity Development (Chuko Shinsho 1967, revised 2017, Chuko Bunko 1984) Continuing Ideas Development and Application of the KJ Method (Chuko Shinsho 1970) At the age of 13, after some time of teaching the method, he decided that "the exploration part before that is important," and exploration studies was born. At the age of 22, he wrote a book entitled "KJ method let the chaos speak for itself," which was the culmination of his work. The germination of the "Idea Method" was refined through interaction with society. Table of Contents
